First things first, I need to give away all the credit for this idea. Thanks to Namita (@nnstats on Twitter) since this blog post was fully inspired by this tweet.

pjocolors: baby's first package 📦

#tidytuesday: tour de france winners 🚴
For this week’s #TidyTuesday, I decided that I wanted to do an in-depth exploration of the this week’s dataset of Tour de France winners, and write a blog post about how I generally go about my data exploration for Tidy Tuesday.

a quick hello
After more dedicated hours than I would like to admit, my website is finally up and running! A huge thank you to the blogdown package which made this process as painless as possible. I have been lining up ideas for blogposts for a year, I’m glad I finally found the time to create the site to host them all. I’ve always had a love of writing, so transitioning those skills to my personal website should be lots of fun.
